MOONSTONE, LABRADORITE & MORE | UNBOXING THE PHENOMENAL FELDSPARS

[@rogerhargreaves2272]

All absolutely beautiful. Loved the Labradorites but Darlene’s Moonstone was very special.

[@oscarmedina1303]

What a fabulous episode! Gemstones and minerals with optical effects are some of my all time favorites. Thank you for posting this video.

[@Keithlynd_]

in Bali, there's hotel where the whole lobby flooring is labradorite

[@SugarplumFairy01]

The clear Moonstones are Amazing WOWZERS ❤ 🤩

[@breakeverychain7]

Feldspar is so magical. 🌟

[@peanutschatzie4129]

I f-ing love the fabulous feldspar mineral group. they're so fun to learn about and find

[@lishamlisham]

I love Moonstone and Labradorite! They're special. I watched the video till the end and was bummed that the contest is only open to US residents... But I still love your channel and I love gemstone so it s natural that this is my favourite channel. Sending lots of love to the team. Warm regards from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

I thought the inclusions in sunstone were copper, not hematite.

[@mayorofduckburg5189]

Thanks for the info about labradorite! It's always been an interesting stone, but I never gave it much thought until being gifted a specimen that could be a twin to the large slab you displayed. Seeing your appreciation has shed new light on this beautiful rock for me!

[@RockyMountainBear]

Spectrolite is like labradorite on steroids and/or magic mushrooms. I shall have some in my collection one day. I have a soft spot for Oregon Sunstone because a friend of mine who lives in Oregon does some seriously beautiful work with Sunstone. The copper inclusions & schiller effect & the colors in Oregon Sunstone are just so warm. Like a bear hug for your eyes.

[@dcallan812]

Some fantastic rocks. The faceted moonstone are very nice. The one thing with collecting this type of material, you can get a big lump of a specimen for a relatively good price (comparatively) great video 2x👍

[@breakeverychain7]

5:15 that is stunning!

[@keithcunningham7925]

I love the big one that started it all great video

[@kameronmatthews2022]

I’ve recently started collecting Feldspar into my gem collection! These are all stunning! My recent favourite of my own is my cats eye moonstone 🌙

[@nelliemusignac]

I have a peach moon stone that is shimmery like that. I love it. ❤

[@hige1234]

guys hot. + nice feldspars!

[@oliverbuck8805]

My favorite was the peach moonstone and the cinnamon sunstone!

[@n3k0lein]

You should totally look at gems the ancient Egyptians appreciated, I'd love to see something like that

[@kthearcher3357]

How cool to learn rainbow moonstone is a shade of labradorite! I've been chasing that stone for years lol

[@fennynough6962]

Great show again! Pricing guide would be nice, so we know what to expect to pay for such beauties.

[@gems]

We tend to shy away from quoting prices because the gem market changes. But we’ll try to do more about general price ranges in the future!

[@Moonstonestardust]

MY FAVORITE CRYSTALS!!!!!!

[@veronica0406]

I love moonstone!

[@lissetteflores4469]

Happy Easter team 🐰 🪺 🎉 These are by far my favourite type of rocks to gaze into. However. not being able to enter the competition or buy off JTV because they don't ship overseas is not great. It's 2024. Let's catch up and include the rest of the world in to Gemstone's heart and give us all a go. Please 🙏 😅❤

[@cathyspiller7154]

I've always loved stones. But I think I might have just loved digging in the dirt! They all have something.

[@derskalde4973]

That big sunstone looks like it's some kind of candy.

[@SugarplumFairy01]

OMG SOOOOO COOOOOOL

[@LostWithoutHer]

The sunstone is cabochon awesome. It looks a lot like Natronite/Natrolite. The labradorite is also spectacular and reminds me of when I was viewing stone surfaces for kitchen and bathrooms and one particular retailer had gigantic slabs of labradorite with fancy lighting which clearly showed the magic of God's handiwork, at unGodly prices. I bought something else, elsewhere. 😲(Question: which is the most valuable/rarest color to reflect from within Labradorite?)

[@SynthiaNominae]

That pink moonstone reminds me of Pikes Peak granite. It's known for its characteristic pink feldspar. I wonder if any of the pieces I've handled were secretly moonstones?

[@NickelCityRD]

Would love to see spectrolite in comparison to regular labradorite and a comparison between darker labradorite versus the lighter stoned labradorite often called rainbow moonstone.

[@loompy1440]

Okay so the coincidences continue to happen with this channel and what I come across. Just got a little lot of moonstone from Asia that looks like your material there. It’s one of those materials I never thought I loved until I saw some good quality stuff in person.

[@SeraphimCherubim]

They are spying on you.

[@laurabeach5756]

❤❤

[@Useroceani]

Found a black, dark gray translucent rock that shimmers when it’s wet only looks like there’s just glitter inside of the rock Still trying to figure out what it is

[@violetvioletviolet1]

moonstone or labradorite? but now that I've learned they are 1 in the same.... it's my favorite!

[@ExsoLam]

No peristerite :(

[@KrosanBeast315]

Sunstone's primary Phenomenon is Aventurescence. Why is that NOT mentioned?! In Sunstone Labradorite Feldspar, the platelets are made of Copper. In Sunstone Orthoclase Feldspar, the inclusions are mostly Hematite.

[@KrosanBeast315]

The rarest is Star Moonstone Sunstone Orthoclase Feldspar.

[@mikeymyers4744]

I invite anyone on the show to ohio..i will take you to a spots that has so much different stuff😊 ill say this..non of it is flint😂😂

[@KrosanBeast315]

The name "Sunstone" is an Aventurescent Variety Call for 3 specific Species: Labradorite, Oligoclase and Orthoclase.

[@Kamall_Yahya]

.i won't, except it spinel or garnet...

[@Nrscathy60]

Labradorite was named after the city, Labrador, in Canada for which it was first found. Your teacher just wants to be different. It IS pronounced like the dog, and city pronunciation. ❤

[@zenflow4life]

Who is the camera person for the "closer looks"? They are not the best at it. Every time i am expecting a nice slow zoom ,maybe a macro shot or two, to really show off the pieces. Each time, I'm just disappointed with shots that my grandson could take by accident while playing with my phone camera.

[@lorawaring883]

Hi folks! After watching your video, I saw this one on sunstones. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3ndYYlnbZuBi7M Are there other metals that don't want to be in a crystal, like the copper/sunstone? And why would that be? Copper works on turquoise and other things- so I ask people who know things: How does it work?

[@ChrisMerrittMusic]

Is it LabraDORite, or LabradoRITE…

[@gems]

We may never settle it!
